Glenn Murray delighted by Crystal Palace triumph over Manchester City

Glenn Murray expresses his delight following Crystal Palace's 2-1 victory at home to Premier League champions Manchester City.

Crystal Palace striker Glenn Murray has admitted that he is "delighted" by the team's 2-1 win over Manchester City.

Murray was on the scoresheet at Selhurst Park on Monday night as the Eagles dealt the Premier League champions a severe blow in their bid to retain the title.

Despite relishing their triumph over City, Murray is eager for Palace to push on during the remainder of the campaign.

"We felt tonight was almost a free game for us," he told Sky Sports News. "When the champions come to town you're not really expected to win. So again we're delighted with the result but we're that type of group that we'll keep working hard and keep pushing for every point we can gain."

Palace are back in action on April 11 when they face Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.
